There are two dominant strategies in crypto: long-term holding (HODLing) and active trading. HODLing is simple โ you buy strong assets and hold through volatility, betting on long-term growth.
Trading, on the other hand, involves frequent buying and selling to capitalize on short-term price movements.
While trading can generate faster profits, it requires discipline, technical knowledge, and emotional control.
Many people underestimate how difficult consistent trading actually is. HODLing may seem slow, but historically it has rewarded patience, especially with strong assets. The best approach depends on your personality, time commitment, and risk tolerance. Knowing yourself is just as important as knowing the market.
